Singulair

We gave in. We got him singulair. We decided we didn't want our son to take it, but after he had what I term an "allergy fever" on Saturday night we gave in. When he gets an allergy fever, his ears turn red, his gets a fever, and then he throws up. This happened three times in May when spring arrived in all it's glory. We just need to get through the autumnal seasonal change, and then maybe we can stop taking it by November/December.
It's such a hard decision, putting your kids on medications. I don't want to give him anything, and I give him far less than our doctors advise, but it's just too hard to watch him suffer so much.
So we'll try singulair, and hope he's ok with it. However, I'm still undecided on this year's flu shot.
